CANYER RIDCILE * REPUBLICAN CLAIY DL NcDonough Replies fo ¢ “Panllel” in Advertisement Ridicule, satire and strong criti- clsm were brought to the assistance of Attorney Patrick F. McDonough #s he denounced the Republican State Central committee for its paid advertisement: “Which will you pick?” at a demecratic rally in T. A. B. hall last night. The advertise- :ment which was carried in the pa- pers yesterday was the subject of the greatest part of Mr. McDon- oug’s talk before more than 2,500 , and at one time he said: I little raw and a little dirty, but what can you expect—?" He was interrupted by such loud and enthusiastic applause that he could not finish the denunciation. ‘The advertisement compared the two presidential candidates, step by step from birth, through school work, political and private life and was written in a way unfavorable to Governor Altred E. Smith, the dem- ocratic candidate for president. It|doing everything he could for hu- | favor it, but I know credited Tammay with the rise of Smith and every position from the age of 17 to the present time was brought about by Tammany associ- ation, the political power of New York city, the advertisement indi- cated. On the other hand, Hoover was credited with working his way through college, doing relief work, living in scven states, and being ex- perienced. Why Speaker Picks Smith One item after the other was an- swered by Attorney McDonough. He opened the discussion with the following remark: “I read an adver- tisement oin a local paper which asked the question, ‘Which will you pick?" The choice lies between Hoo- ver or 8mith. Now without a mo- ment of hesitation I'll pick Alfred E. 8mith and I'll tell you why. “He is better fitted for the office ‘because he knows the needs and understands the hearts of the Amer- ican people.” Continuing, he said Smith was hot for special interests and special privileges. It was at this point that he made the statement concerning the “raw and dirty” tactics used. {“I'd say it was ‘hot stuff’,” he con- tinued.. “The first item is that Hoover was born in West Branch, Jowa, the son of a blacksmith and Smith was born in New York city, the son of a truck driver. So it is & blg item where a man's father was employed. “Hoover started as office boy and gworked his way through college. So 1 for that matter and like Smith also worked my way through the grade of the grammar school. Smith was a newsboy and so was I. . “I gave them a 50-50 break when ithe ad said they earned their own living at 13 years of age. Lauds Tom Foley “According to the advertisement Hoover's counsellor and friend from 17 to 85 years of age was Dr. J. C. Branner, geologist and vice ‘president of Stanford University and Smith's friend and counsellor was 'om Foley, Tammany district boss. knew Tom Foley. If Dr. J. C. ner had the humanness of that Tom Foley possessed he & great man, and when Tom ey was carried to his grave mil- of tears attested to the esteem 8 which he was held. “This is an example of the way he republican party is running the campaign, ‘Red Hot' Moses started it “Hoover was employed as a min- ing engineer from the age of 21 1o 27. That is nothing to his credit and at the same time they have Smith as a Tammany political clerk at $900 a year. But Smith {rought up a family of five, I belicve, moth- ered by one of the sweetest women we've ever seen. You saw her last Thursday.” Attorney McDonough hit a$ the statements made that Governor Smith was not fitted for the presi- |dency. He then sketched the ca- {reer of President Calvin 'who, he said, was not too suc- | cessful as a lawyer, was made may- lor of Northampton, elected to the |assembly, made lieutenant governor, governor and then became presi- |dent. “And they call him a won- |der,” he sai. | “And they try to tell the people |that Smith is inexperien :4,” he {continued, adding that Smith had |srappled with problems, and had | met every problem in the large and !wealthy state of New York. | Hoover Away From U. S The speaker pointed out | Hoover had been out of the coun- try following his graduation from | college until nine and one-half years |ago. ~ At the same time he pointed |to the fact that Smith had been in | New York, working and fighting and { manity, |, The claim was advanced by At- torney McDonough that Hoover was “made” when former President Wil- son appointed him to a government position and then he referred to the statements of Senator Reed which placed Hoover in the position where Ihe was looking for the democratic nomination at the democratic con- vention in 1920, He belittled the Connecticut dele- gation to the republican national | convention because of its attempts to continue President Coolidge in loffice for a third term despite the |fact that the president did not |want to run. He said the delega- tion was the laughing stock of the people when they held out until the {end only to see Hoover nominated [through the work of Vare, the boss |of Philadelphia. “This same crowd which would not support Hoover at the conven- tion is now putting, out this adver- tisement telling the world what a | wonderful man he is," the speaker lsaid. McDonough then turned to an item which stated that Governor Smith's employment at 41 years of |age was that of sheriff in New York ! state. He continued: “One of our greatest presidents was sheriff in New York state and later governor. He was Grover | Clevelana.” “Toward the latter part of his talk | he went a step further in the demo- cratic campaign against the so-call- |ed “power-grab” and at one time |charged that Chapter 249 of the | public acts was so changed that it {became possible for a water con- |cern to manufacture power in this state and send all of it outside the state to avoid the tax which is the state’s income from its natural re- sources, Attacks Walcott He pointed out that while Senae tor Frederic C. Walcott was chair man of the committee on finance {in the state legislature, Section II | was amended, providing a reduction lct the one and one-half per cent |tax on all sales of power or elec- tricity from one public concern to another. He said that by taking the words, “within the state” from the books an attempt was being made to pave the way for a tie-up with outside HOOVER or SMITH It won’t make any difference to your pocketbook.
